Patch to stop the N130 generating repeated key events

Hi, this is a bug similar to the NC20 patch that I submitted previously.  The N130 is a new machine and there is also an N140 which will probably also have the problem but I do not have that machine to test.

Distribution: Ubuntu Karmic Beta
Kernel: 2.6.31-13-generic

Prerequisites
=============
This bug will not manifest unless the udev or hal has been configured to recognise the laptop.

Steps to reproduce:
===================
Press fn key plus up arrow to increase brightness, press fn key plus down arrow
to decrease brightness

Expected results
================
Screen brightness is increased or decreased 

Actual results
==============
fn plus down arrow reduces brightness to minimum.
fn plus up arrow increases brightness to maximum.
Gnome interface becomes unusable: menus cannot be clicked, keyboard becomes
unresponsive

Workaround
==========
The user can switch to a VT and then back to the GUI and this allows normal keyboard operation until they press fn+up or fn+down again.

Comments
========
The behaviour observed is because the key release events after brightness up
and brightness down are not generated.  This has the effect of repeating the
brightness up or brightness down keys indefinitely.  This causes the "all or
nothing" effect on brightness and the unresponsive Gnome GUI.
